Hi,
For the tax experts on here, I have a couple of questions.
a) Laptops to my knowledge are depreciable over 3 years. Is this 33% per year or different (sliding scale) rates per year?
(I am aware that you then have to apply a % that was work related to this figure).
b) My wife and I are in a 99/1% split for our IP (to maximise tax benefit to my income). We both have travel expenses relating to property manager interviewing/signing of PM contract and quick tidy up of our IP. Should the travel expenses be claimed 99% under my name 1% on my wife's name in line with our IP split, or should they be claimed 'at cost' split (ie. 100% of my expenses to me, 100% of my wife's expenses to her, 50% each for joint expenses)?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
